Yowza!
Big bad boy indeed,

the shaping is spot on the mark all aces!
Love the birdseye too.
Looks like a proper top boss pipe!
May it serve thee well,

enjoy!
Merry Christmas!

that last pic makes it look the briar is facing a strong wind from the "east". I like it.

That pipe looks eerily familiar, like i've seen it before? Haha, WOW, that thing looks nearly identical to mine Bradley! Clark, great job in replicating this one, it is a wonderful pipe with exquisite grain. Bradley, you are truly in for a treat if it smokes anything like mine (which i am positive it will). A HUGE congrats to you and please please please let us know how she smokes!
fyi, i have officially come to the conclusion that my layton is the BEST smoking pipe in my collection, hands down. This is no BS, and Clark i will be coming to you for another ASAP. Maybe a little "customer appreciation discount" for garnering you all this new business from the wonderful gentlemen on this forum? J/K, great job again Clark, you are truly talented in your craft!

Just in case you guys want a comparison to how spot on Clark was in duplicating the pipe he made that i own, here are the pics from his website of mine (scroll down about 3/4 of the page and you'll see it):

In my humble opinion, that is truly a remarkable show of talent, to be able to replicate something as well as this with only dimensions and working knowledge of remembering how you did the last one. Especially something as intricate and detail oriented as a HAND MADE pipe!

That is absolutely amazing Bradley. I can't wait for mine to get here. Hoping it makes it tomorrow so I can break it in Christmas Eve! Every pipe I see just makes me even more astounded in Clarks abilities. Enjoy that beautiful Birdseye Bradley!

Mr.B Im sorry actually that info is incorrect. I was looking at the wrong shipment. There is no info up yet on your pipe. It was a pleasure working with you as well, thank you! Merry Christmas, clark

Gigger I don't pick the briar out personally, but I have a good relationship with my briar cutter in Greece and he takes care of me. I also buy a lot so I always have a lot to pick through to find the right block for each pipe.

That is gorgeous! A pipe fit for even the most skeptical grain mavin. ( a name Peck came up with. I like it. I'm using it until you trade mark it.)

Amazing grain and depth. Stunning pipe. Great choice for stem, too.
